1963 Ford Falcon Convertible for sale. Inline 6 motor and 3 speed on the tree manual transmission. The car runs well. Newly rebuilt carburetor done about a week ago. New electric fuel pump and filter installed two days ago. She has new spark plugs as well.

This Falcon has air shocks. Comes with white wall tires with stock spinner wheels (looks great). The paint is in great condition. Trim is all there and looks good. Body is STRAIGHT with no rust. The convertible top works flawlessly. All gauges and lights work. Stock AM radio is in the car but not working.

The car has one rust spot under driver side cowl on the undercarriage. No other rust has been found. Pretty remarkable. The car is numbers matching and has the original door plate. Car is all original.

Interior is OK. The back seat is good. New carpet. The front seat needs re-upholstery on the base of the seat. Seat backs are good as new. Just the actual bench seat. Would be a real easy and cheap job. The convertible top is in excellent shape. The back plastic window is also in good shape. The top is electric and works great.

This car runs well. She does not pull at all while riding or braking. Has good power for an i6 and shifts nice a smooth. Starts up instantly when warm or cold. The motor does run a bit rich and the brakes will need to be given some love to get them back to par. The brakes work, but not good enough to where you would feel comfortable leaving them the way they are.

This is a great original Falcon that has been unmolested, is stock, and runs like it should. Hard to find them like this. Car is registered through April of 2015 in California and is in my name. CLEAN title. The Falcon is listed locally as well as on eBay. I have a Buy It Now price listed on eBay with a best offer option. This car can be picked up locally in Huntington Beach or I could ship it anywhere in the US. The buyer will pay exact freight charges direct to the shipping company. Upon the sale a non-refundable deposit will be due immediately. The remaining amount can be paid via cash, cashiers check, wire transfer, or PayPal (at additional 3% charge to cover my fees).

Ford, GM still doing new business with Takata amidst airbag crisis

Thu, Nov 20 2014

Lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. You might expect automakers to be fleeing any connection with beleaguered supplier Takata in the wake of the company's exploding airbag inflator crisis. After all, with a Senate hearing, pending lawsuit, plummeting stock value and demand for a national recall, the tier-one supplier isn't at its strongest right now. However, years of cooperation mean that automakers are standing by Takata, and necessity may be playing a role, as well. About 39 percent of Takata's business comes from airbags, and seatbelts make up another significant chunk of the operation too, says Bloomberg. The long-term relationships and lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. "Takata has so much product breadth that I don't really see that they could just disappear," said AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan to Bloomberg. For example, Takata helped develop the unique front center airbag with General Motors in models like the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Outside of safety tech, it is also a partner with Ford on the adaptive steering system available on the upcoming 2015 Edge. These long-lasting partnerships make change difficult now that there's a problem. According to Reuters, automakers claim it would take a year or longer to set up with a different supplier for replacement airbag inflators. Switching to a completely different part for the repairs might not be a viable option either, because of the engineering time needed. BMW is taking action, though. According to Reuters, the Bavarian brand is working with the supplier to move inflator production from Monclova, Mexico, to a Takata factory in Freiburg, Germany. The Mexican plant may be the source of some of the faulty parts. News Source: Bloomberg, ReutersImage Credit: Jens Meyer / AP Photo BMW Ford GM Safety Takata airbag recall

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
